The Airport has two runways that are grooved
concrete, five instrumental landing procedures for all weather operations, an
air traffic control tower and all the other amenities of a twenty-first century
airport. Four airlines; Mesaba/Northwest, United/United Feeder Service and Skyway/Midwest Express provide 24
flights per day which connect through Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit and
Milwaukee. There are also nine airfreight and express flights daily. Since
1982 more than $24,000,000 has been spent to keep the airport ready
to serve the business and pleasure needs of the region.
